gray kitchen....walls

Now that my master bath re-do is a re-done, my kitchen is screaming for a little love. For months, I have been combing colors for that 'perfect gray' cabinet color. But lately....I'm seeing some wonderful gray on kitchen walls.

This is the combo I'm going to be putting into our new house - medium shade of grey on the walls, white cabinets, charcoal island base and white with grey marble counters. I get giddy thinking about it.

I have used benjamin moore gray owl and sea haze on clients cabinets. I love them both! I am about to do my own cabinets in gray owl. love the softness! My walls are now gray but soon to be something else...not sure what though! Maybe wallpaper! Keep me posted if try a gray on your cabinets! ...-Ann (birdsofafeatherdesign.com)

I have custom mixed medium-gray walls (Ben Moore) - white cabinets - brass cabinet pulls and sink faucet - marble accessories (white, gray, and black). I cannot imagine using anything else. It just doesn't get any better than this! I have had this design for going on 6 years and visitors still remark on how timeless and elegant it looks. Combos of gray and white are just exquisite!

This is the dilemma - white cabinets gray walls - perfection right? NOT really.. I cook like a fiend, kids have dirty fingers, husbands coffee splatter, and i would spend half my week wiping those bad boys down, But gray cabinet and white walls, same impact and I could skip a week of cabinet cleaning...
